    What are your specs? The PCI slots on the M17x is usually not used for anything else than Video Cards, i think..


    Anyway,
    you should be able to get your drivers off DELL's website here;
    Dell - Drivers and Downloads

    Use your service-tag to identify your computer and it should show up all drivers that you need to install.

    I don't know how to list my specs on the sub-script like you guys but I fixed it. Windows update said it was the Intel Managment Engine.

    You would have to edit your signature (in the user CP menu).

    Anyways, glad it worked out for you :)
